Hi Everyone!
I am very excited to host the 2008 Great Lakes Odonata Meeting in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The event will be held in Munising from June 20th to June 22nd. Field excursions will include trips to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Seney National Wildlife Refuge, the Hiawatha National Forest, and Lake Superior State Forest. We will be visiting bogs, bog lakes, fens, impoundments, and various other aquatic and wetland habitats…So be sure to bring a smile and your outdoor gear! I have attached the registration form for the event at the bottom of this message, as well as the preliminary agenda. PLEASE SEND YOUR COMPLETED REGISTRATION FORMS BY JUNE 8TH. See the bottom of the form for instructions and my mailing/e-mail addresses.
The first day will be reserved for travel and check-in at the Falling Rock Café and Bookstore, followed by presentations and dinner in the evening at Sydney's Restaurant.
